Production Equipment Reliability Technician

Production Equipment Reliability Technician

Imagine a packaging line pauses—an unusual rattle, a tripped sensor, a VFD alarm. You trace the sound, review the schematic, and bring the line back with a targeted fix. If this sounds like your kind of challenge, you’ll thrive here. This mid-level role sits between Jr. Mechanic and Electro-Mechanic, blending mechanical mastery with practical electrical know-how to keep food production running at its best.

Your Mission

• Drive reliability through preventive and corrective maintenance of motors, conveyors, pumps, pneumatics, and related machinery.
• Contribute on electrical tasks : replace switches and sensors; install and troubleshoot VFDs.
• Use observation, sound, and basic diagnostic tools to pinpoint mechanical issues.
• Disassemble, repair, and reassemble equipment with hand and power tools; assist with setups, changeovers, and light fabrication.
• Support facilities : basic plumbing and carpentry, HVAC filter changes, and general building care.
• Assist during inclement weather (snow removal, salting, roof checks) and help with grounds maintenance.
• Keep tools organized, return equipment to proper locations, and maintain a clean, safe workspace.
• Manage parts and supplies inventory; escalate shortages and reorder needs.
• Record work accurately in CMMS / work orders; propose improvements to enhance uptime and safety.
